Purpose:
To inform a large group of people about an event, announcement, or important information. Notices are typically displayed on notice boards in schools, offices, or public places.
Detailed Explanation
The purpose of notice writing is to communicate important information to a large audience. Notices are brief and to the point, ensuring that the reader can quickly grasp the essential details. They often address events or announcements that involve many people, such as school events or organizational meetings.
Examples & Analogies
Think of a notice like a billboard on the highway. Just as a billboard provides quick information to drivers about upcoming attractions or services, a notice serves to inform people about events in a condensed, easily understandable format.

Format:
- Box: A notice must always be enclosed in a box.
- Name of Issuing Authority/Organization: (Top center) The name of the school, club, society, etc., that is issuing the notice.
- The Word 'NOTICE': (Below the issuing authority, center) Written in bold, capital letters.
- Date: (Left side, below 'NOTICE') The date of issue.
- Heading/Title: (Center, clear and concise) Should briefly state the purpose of the notice.
- Body: (Main content) Contains all the necessary information, written clearly and concisely.
- Signature: (Left side, below body)
- Name: (Below signature, full name)
- Designation: (Below name) (e.g., Head Boy/Girl, Secretary, Cultural Secretary).
Detailed Explanation
The format of a notice is crucial for its clarity. It includes several key elements: First, the notice must be in a box to clearly distinguish it from other texts. Next, the organization issuing the notice should be at the top center, followed by the word 'NOTICE' in bold letters to grab attention. The date of the notice should be positioned to the left. A concise heading or title centers on the main purpose. Following that, the body of the notice includes vital information structured in a straightforward manner. Finally, it should include the signature, name, and designation of the person issuing the notice, which adds formality.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine creating a flyer for a community event. You need to make sure it stands out and includes all the relevant detailsβwho's hosting (the organization), what the event is about (the title), when it happens (the date), and how people can find more information (contact details). Thatβs similar to the notice format!

Key Characteristics:
- Conciseness: Use minimal words; avoid unnecessary phrases.
- Clarity: Information must be easily understandable.
- Completeness: Include all essential 'W's (What, When, Where, Who, Whom to contact).
- Formal Tone: Maintain a formal and objective tone.
- Word Limit: Usually 50 words.
Detailed Explanation
Notices must be concise and straight to the point. This means using as few words as possible while ensuring that all the essential information is included. Clarity is vital; the information should be easily understood. Completeness is also crucial; a notice must answer the basic questions of what the event is about, when and where it will take place, who it is for, and whom to contact for more information. A formal tone assures that the communication is serious and respectful, and typically a notice should not exceed 50 words to maintain brevity.
Examples & Analogies
Think of a text message to a friend about a meeting. You wouldnβt write a long essay; instead, you'd provide just the essentials: 'Meeting at my house tomorrow at 6 PM. Bring your laptop.' This approach is what makes a notice effective!
